    The Projection of a space (2)


    Projection of the space onto a plan:

    The matrix A projects the space in the direction  of the  eigenvector V3  on a plan  determined by the eigenvector V1 and V2 if : 
    
    * The eigenvector V1 has its eigenvalue equal to  one and    
    * The eigenvector V2 has its eigenvalue equal to  one and    
    * The eigenvector V3 has its eigenvalue equal to zero and 
    
    * If The vectors V1 and V2 and V3 are linearly independent 
    
    In these examples, you choose the vectors of the plan and the vector for the projection. You compute  the matrix A that projects the space in the direction of the  eigenvector V3  onto a plan  determined by the eigenvectors V1 and V2. Next, you can calculate the projection of a point P onto the plan.
    

    The application

    You can choose the vectors of the plan and the vector for the projection.

    You create the matrix A.

    You verify the properties of the matrix A.

    You can calculate the projection of a point P onto the plan.

    Check if the projection of a point P lies on the plane.
